Hi, It's quite simple. Do something like that. Inside your EntityQuery class declare your restrictions: private String[] restrictions = | {"inidate = #{mybean.date}", "name like upper(#{mybean.name} + '%')" }; and now override getRestrictions() like that: @override | public List<String> getRestrictions() { | return Arrays.asList(restrictions); | } Please forgive me if I wrote some declaration wrong, but it's all I can remember up to now.
